Famous quotes containing the words financial and/or troubles:

    A theory of the middle class: that it is not to be determined by its financial situation but rather by its relation to government. That is, one could shade down from an actual ruling or governing class to a class hopelessly out of relation to government, thinking of gov’t as beyond its control, of itself as wholly controlled by gov’t.

    Lionel Trilling (1905–1975)

    This is an hour of history that troubles our minds and hurts our hearts.
    Gerald R. Ford (b. 1913)
